Boktai 2 = $19.99 @ gamestop.com

Bombtai. I'm surprised Konami is letting Kojima make a third one of these on the DS, since they apparently sell like 2,000 per.
 
Konami was only aiming for 100k worldwide too... I doubt they'll even hit 60k.

I liked the first Boktai, but I can't manage to find any excitement for part 2. Well, it looks more like part 1.5.... that might be part of the reason. :/
 
On a more positive note, I'm playing through it and it's much nicer than the first (which was awesome too)

it's a lot more easy on you if you can't get out to the sun too ... I enjoy being played by a game, but if there wasn't the 'solar' issue this game would sell a TON to people otherwise dissuaded by the 'solar obligation'

it's the closest thing to a portable Metal Gear I can think of ... in it's own little way.

but really fun game, every bit as robust as Mario&Luigi or Metroid Zero Mission.
 
Boktai 2 is significantly superior to the original, imho. I really dug the added action-rpg elements.

Closer than this?

That's absolutely a steal - and to all those holding out - the reason to own this game is BECAUSE of the solar obligation - it's weird, it's kind of annoying, but it's different and something unlike anything else!

Kojima is tired of MGS, and Boktai is his new passion.... for now.
 
I haven't gotten very far at all in Boktai 2, but I don't like it as much as the first. Where's my Luna Lens + Beatmania frame combo?!

I have Boktai (thank you $5 CC deal). Still haven't opened it yet...

Same here! The game must truly suck to make me have to go outside. NO THANKS.

Doesn't Boktai 2 work on regular lights?
